Replacing the batteries:
- Your OneTouch Verio Reflect® Meter uses 2x CR2032 lithium batteries. One battery powers the meter only and the other powers the backlight.
- If the meter does not turn on, or remains dim after pressing a button, check the batteries.
- Do Not change the batteries when connected to a PC.
- WARNING:
- CHEMICAL BURN HAZARD. DO NOT INGEST BATTERY. This product contains a coin/button cell battery. If swallowed, it can quickly cause severe internal burns and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away from children. If you think batteries might have been swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
- IMPORTANT:
- Use only CR2032 lithium batteries with your meter. Do Not use rechargeable batteries. Use of an incorrect battery type or a used battery may result in your meter providing fewer tests than normal.
- WARNING:
- Certain batteries may cause leaking, which can damage the meter or cause the batteries to lose power sooner than normal. Replace leaking batteries immediately.
1. Remove the old batteries
-
